Annualized total return = (1 + total)^(1/years) - 1. Ret/Vol is the annualized return divided by annualized volatility (Sharpe-equivalent without risk-free subtraction). Hit % = pct of single periods that were positive.

Frequently Asked Questions
What factors could push Eurozone Real GDP higher?▾
The primary drivers that tend to lift Eurozone Real GDP depend on the current macro regime. European markets carry the sovereign debt overhang of the post-2010 era in their pricing. Bund-BTP spreads remain the cleanest gauge of periphery stress, while HICP drives ECB policy expectations. UK macro diverges post-Brexit, with sterling volatility and Gilt-Bund spreads carrying political risk premia that sometimes detach entirely from U.S. moves. Convex tracks these drivers live across the EU/UK Rates category and flags when multiple forces align in the same direction. See the "Key Drivers & Risks" section on this page for the current list, and check the regime dashboard for how the macro backdrop is currently tilted.
What factors could push Eurozone Real GDP lower?▾
The same transmission channels that drive Eurozone Real GDP higher operate in reverse when conditions flip. The risk drivers listed above map directly to scenarios that, if triggered, would pull this metric in the opposite direction. Convex aggregates these into a scenario-weighted probability distribution rather than a point forecast, so the magnitude depends on which scenarios activate.
Where does consensus see Eurozone Real GDP heading?▾
Rather than publish a point target that goes stale the day after release, Convex assembles consensus from the macro regime classification, active scenario probabilities, and historical base rates. Point forecasts from banks and strategists are worth reading for context, but they typically cluster around the consensus and miss the tail events that actually move markets. The scenario-weighted approach here captures that tail risk explicitly.
What is the historical range for Eurozone Real GDP?▾
Historical ranges for Eurozone Real GDP vary dramatically by regime. A level that is extreme in Goldilocks can be routine in Stagflation, and vice versa. The Historical Volatility section on this page describes the typical range and regime-specific behavior. For the full multi-decade history, visit the Eurozone Real GDP chart page, which includes selectable time ranges up to five years and downloadable data.
How often is the Eurozone Real GDP forecast updated?▾
This forecast page recalculates whenever the underlying data or regime classification changes, typically within hours of new data releases. The scenario probabilities refresh daily as the macro state is regenerated. Specific drivers listed on this page reflect the current state of the Convex regime engine, not static historical assumptions.
Is this forecast actionable for trading?▾
Convex forecasts are informational and educational. They describe probability distributions and regime-conditional paths rather than specific entry and exit levels. Traders and portfolio managers use them alongside other inputs including position sizing rules, risk management, and their own conviction calibration. They are not investment advice.
